How is this possible...
Its around 40 degrees and very little wind. I don't have gloves on, but my hands are fine, face is fine, ears and nose are fine, but my feet feel like they're sitting in a bucket of ice!!!
I have on decent wool socks and muck boots, and I'd like to hear some theories.
Oh, and no deer so far.
Go

Have you ever gotten frost bite, I've gotten it b4 on my feet now I can't keep em warm

You probably need bigger boots.
Or you had to shite and wiped your arse with your socks and are now sitting in your stand barefooted because you don't want your boots to stink.

You probably sweated without knowing it and that wool got damp. Happens when I have a stout hike in the woods to get to my stand. Either thAt or you left your boots outside and insulation is trapping coldness in. Or lastly, you have holes in them, which is unlikely to occur on both boots. There you go, my .02

Most likely your feet sweat while walking to your stand.If you have a long walk carry extra socks and change them when you get to your stand. Also never a good idea to wear your boots in your truck when driving to your lease, your feet will sweat and you won't notice it until too late. I also have a few pair of boots i wear depending on how cold it's gonna be when i go. I know how you feel, it sucks, but i took this advise from someone about 20 yrs ago and have never had a problem since.

sweaty feets?
size larger boots, air to move, too tight can slow blood movement and make numb.. need to be able to easily wiggle toes.
wear wicking sock next to feet to catch sweat, never skin directly to wool.
bring all boots in to camp at night and roll down.
i bet most or all of this has already been said, huh?

Do you have a gore-tex layer or a waterproof membrane like that? also, do you have wool socks on that make your feet feel like a "snug fit?"

Probably sweat. Spray antiperspirant on your feet before you put on your socks.

If they get wet or cold, your muck boots are probably trapping that cold in. Muck boots are pretty bad for the cold unless they are well insulated.

How is this possible
Sitting in one position restricts blood flow to your feet bad circulation equals cold feet. Try doing jumping jacks every five minutes to increase blood flow. Make sure you have on your safety harness though.
